Is sex really the relationship? (2)


True love always wants to wait, so true love does not mind waiting until marriage. It is sad that the present society we are now has aversion for right things but the truth of the matter is that virginity is still one of the most precious things you have to give to your spouse, either as a male or female. Once you lose it, nothing in the world can bring it back. Many still don’t agree with me because they are of the opinion it doesn’t matter since they would soon get married. But we all know that the only thing that cannot change in life is change itself. So, the possibility always exists that you may for some reason or reasons decide against marrying the particular person you have been sexually bonded with. When this happens, you have, through sexual involvement, given a part of yourself to someone other than your spouse for life.

The fact still remains that if one succumbs to moral enticement before marriage, nothing may likely stop such fellow from giving in to moral enticement once married. If couples cannot control themselves before marriage, how will they be able to do so when married? The more promiscuous an individual is before marriage, the more likely such individual will be even when he or she is in a promising marital relationship. There have been cases of dating partners who are very okay sexually, but find it hard to find lasting love.
Of course, in sex saturated culture like ours, waiting till marriage seems out-dated. Contrary to popular opinion, those who choose to save sex for marriage are not doomed to a second-class sex life. Rather, research has shown that such people typically report higher levels of sexual satisfaction and marital contentment. Early sexual experience has been linked to marital dissatisfaction, low self-esteem and greater incidence of divorce. When pre marital sex becomes the reason for the marriage regardless of other important things, the marriage may lose taste. A typical marriage worth looking forward to entails good communication, friendship, playfulness, understanding and lots of sexual escapades.
We cannot rule out the fact that there will be zero or low risk of sexually transmitted diseases in a pre- marital relationship; even when you are married to a sexually inexperienced individual, the one beautiful joy of such union is that such spouse can learn and get better with experience in time, since both of you have a life time of learning together. And learning sexual skill together as married partners is not only entertaining, amusing and fun but the fact that both of you will discover new things together, grow together develop healthy and bonding wholesome sexual intimacy together is very thrilling and fascinating.
In addition, there will be no risk of unwanted pregnancy. Yes there are smart ways of preventing pregnancy. There is also high rate of family planning failure. From researchers, it has been discovered that premarital sex leads to emotional distress, distrust, regret and emptiness; even though people involved try to put up a bold face and pretend nothing happens, yet the emptiness is obvious. That’s because sex connects two people in body and spirit; it’s impossible to separate the two. Premarital sex always comes with consequences one way or the other.
This is a highly controversial view with different excuses. Yet, there is always a place for smooth running. You do not need to stay ‘well-informed’ with practical vaginal sex before you know how to do it better. There are lots of sexual information without practical that will still give you best information.
A researcher confirmed that the more people you have sex with does not make you better informed. He said that if you roll in the sack with five partners or 10 or 50, it will still not be enough. He further went on to say that, ‘how many of us really want our spouses should be that well informed, after rolling in the sack with countless of others?
They may become better informed about other things they never anticipated such as venereal diseases. Is it really worth “staying practically informed?” Many STDs are present without symptoms until the disease is far advanced. Treatment becomes difficult to diagnose and control. Rarely does a premarital sexual relationship last long enough to make it to marriage vows. People engaging in this activity will experience the heart rending emotional upset that comes with breaking up. And when people experience multiple breakups, it numbs them to a marriage commitment of “until death do us part.” They have conditioned themselves to run, instead of working out the problems that arise within marriages. Divorce statistics are higher when the couple engaged in premarital sex or lived together before deciding to marry. So learn before you leap.
